2006 Honda VTX1800 Reviews

2006 Honda VTX1800 from United States of America

Summary:

This is my last bike until I've had an AARP card for a while and buy a Goldwing

Faults:

Nothing at all.

General Comments:

The VTX 1800 is torque on two wheels. It's got gobs of power and roll on for any situation. I moved up from a VT1100C, and the difference is immense. You definitely have to muscle it through corners, because the huge front tire and all the weight does not lend itself to being thrown around. On those long cruises though - wow. I've been rolling up steep hills, two up, and didn't have to down shift. Great bike!

My only complaint is that Honda changed the turn signal bulbs from the readily available 1157 to the harder to find Euro spec.

Well let's see, things that have gone wrong? It rains way too much! And Honda does not make this bike any more! So those are the only things that have gone wrong!!

General Comments:

I did some mods that were very simple and it made the already fast bike (mammoth machine my mom calls her), even more impressive!

I installed a pc 3, programmer and had it dynoed! Then put in a final from a VTX 1300! This bike is now a highway cruiser!! Not for the meek at heart! Vance & Hinds big shots are a major +, but a very smooth bike to just tour!
